Inside Out (2015) 8/10

One of the best animated movies I've seen in a long time. I fully understand that excellent rating on IMDB. Fresh; original; feel good; just plain smart. Bloody nice one Disney & Pixar

Subtle differences...

Should I smack you or what?

Comparing Disney/Pixar with cutting edge comedy. Are you high?

Chillax man...check that emoji there...humour was implied.

Good viewing on both parts for different reasons.

Vacation (2015) - 6/10

Not as good as the original, but it had a few funny moments, which they showed on their movie trailer.

Infini 6/10

Decent low budget sci-fi. Overly-clunky exposition at times but some interesting ideas.

The Gift (2015) - 5/10

A slow paced psychological thriller with a small twist at the end.

This was that Aussie one.

Generally I like the recent stuff the Oz guys are coming out with that but this movie was slight subpar & only really picked up in the last 30mins or so.

Black Mass (2015) - 8/10

Think I'll go watch a lighthearted movie after the last couple of ones I've watched

Pixels (2015) 7/10

The review of this movie was a struggle; if you watched it you would know what I mean. It's a Happy Madison Productions so it has all those traits. There is no denying it's a fun movie; clever idea and execution & the CGI was well done *But* the characters Adam Sandler; Kevin James; Josh Gad & Peter Dinklage were *so* cheesy & pretty much awful. It's hard to forgive if I'm honest. If you can live with all the corniness & dryness then that score goes up another 1 point. Despite all the bad qualities; it's certainly worth one watch even more so if you dig 80's arcade games. Best Adam Sandler movie ever made; (that's not really saying much)...

Special mention to the Pacman Mini's & as well as the Indianize version of Spandau Ballet's True.

Bikini Model Academy (2015) 2/10

Dunno why I wasted my time wth B-Grade garbage; its horrible on so many levels. Plot; acting; dialogue...the works. Only redeeming feature; as the name implies; is the Bikini Models.
